Story:
Ban Ton Yuad Village
Ban Ton Yuad is a Lahu Shi village located in Mae Taeng district, Chiang Mai province and it is about 70 kilometer away from Chiang Mai city. The village has 56 households with a population 290 people. TTC started working with basket weaver in this village in 1986 . The items made by this producer group includes traditional Lahu baskets of hamper and box style, and a variety of modified baskets made of bamboo that they can find locally. The tradition of Lahu Shi making basket is that the husband and wife working together. There are 20 couples who can weave variety of baskets but the number of producers keep changing depending on the volume of orders available.

The village can be reached by car in dry seasons and it is difficult to get into the village in rainy season because half of the distance to village is dirt road. Each household has a limited size of land that the can grow rice, corn and beans but their earning from agriculture is not enough for all year round. Therefore, villagers need supplementary income. Some of them go to work in different cities in Thailand About 60% of the village income is from agriculture and 40% from sales of baskets to Thai Tribal Crafts.
